520 |a Brady Barr introduces us to two heroes of the wild west, one legendary, the other unsung. "Heloderma suspectum", the Gila Monster, is the source of more superstitions, folklore, and exaggerated claims than any other North American animal. "Onychomys torridus", the grasshopper mouse, looks like a sweet, harmless, little mouse-- but behaves like an invention of Hollywood's horror industry. This film is an action-packed expose of two extraordinary and contrasting strategies for survival - the killer lizard's ability to store energy in its huge fat tail and go for a year without food versus the mouse's voracious appetite and need to live and eat "in the fast lane."
